Wishing you the best …

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Hogmanay, Happy New Year, Happy-whatever-you-may-celebrate, and all the best to you in 2017! May it be a brighter year for us all.

As a gift for my readers, who have had little to read from me in recent years, I have packaged up a few seasonal stories and published them as an epub. I wrote them between 2008 and 2015, so they span a few years.

You can pick up Yuletide Stories on box.com.

I am also participating in the Hoggywarty Christmas Party again this year. I’m anticipating a lot of great fic and art, as has been the case in past years. If you’re looking for some good Hogwarts Christmas/winter stories, stop by and check out the party or read the entries from the previous years. The quality is really outstanding.

Updated List & Links Page

I have updated the page with the list and links to all my fics on various sites. I hadn’t touched it since late 2013, so it’s nice to have that done. I will update the various sub-lists (the topical ones) soon, as well.

Look for a new chapter of A Long Vernal Season soon! If you can’t remember the last few chapters and where Severus and Poppy are, no worries — I reread the last several chapters recently myself to get back into the groove of the story.

RIP Alan Rickman

I was shocked to see the news of Alan Rickman’s death. The world’s lost a great talent. I send my sympathy to his family and friends, whose loss is personal. They must be experiencing a great void in their lives.

Rest in peace, Alan Rickman.
